✭✭✭I really like Engine Guardian on a MagSorc. It travels with you even when you Streak, it helps with sustain, and it can block you as a target to enemies.
Infernal Guardian is a popular one too because of the +max magicka and that it procs a lot due to shield spamming.Edited by brandonv516 on June 16, 2018 11:26PM1 -

✭Infernal guardian is my all around favorite. Since you always need to cast shields anyway, with the high proc chance, it's a no brainer. Grothdarr is cool if you're running with a bomber group. Pirate skeleton is good if you're a vamp and have the undead passive. It will usually allow you to survive quite a bit longer when you get focused.1 -

I’ve never pvped before I thought divines would give better stats, no?0 -

I would go with all impen if you've never pvped before or you will have a lousy experience. When you get better you can be more ballsy and drop impen.1 -

✭✭✭✭If you use shields a lot, use Infernal Guardian. It puts pressure on people to not stand still, and in BGs, it can hurt. The set's also fairly easy to get."Buzz Lightyear toy isle shot" Stormcalling/Animal Companions/Assassination PVP build hater

In PvP, survivability trumps raw stats, especially if you don't really have a way of exiting combat on short notice. This is why traits like impenetrable and well-fitted are more advisable to increase your chances of taking hits. Players dish out damage a lot faster than NPCs and all of a sudden 15-20k health doesn't seem like much at all if you die in 2 seconds flat.
This is why it's also not uncommon to see mages or nightblades in heavy armor builds. Players typically don't have the 3 million health of a dungeon boss, so there's really no need for your DPS to be insanely high. So you can forego divines in favor of defensive traits.0
